The Repositories Support Project (RSP) is a major JISC initiative to support the development and growth of the UK repositories network. The RSP will co-ordinate and deliver good practice and practical advice to English and Welsh HEIs to enable the implementation, management and development of digital institutional repositories.
The RSP is contributing to building repository capacity, knowledge and skills within institutions. Through providing guidance and advice it benefits the whole of the UK sector resulting in the wider take-up and development of institutional repositories in HEIs.
The aim of the project is to progress the vision of a deployed network of interworking repositories for academic papers, learning materials and research data across the UK. Whilst fulfilling the business requirements of HEIs to manage their assests, showcase research outputs, and share learning materials, such a network of populated repositories will be a major step forward in the provision of open access materials.
The RSP is consulting with the community at large in order to ensure institutions can be effectively supported whatever their repository type or stage of maturity. A databank of expertise, know-how and best practice is being built at the project website:
